Cross-metathesis between ethane and toluene catalyzed by [([triple bond, length as m-dash]SiO)2TaH]: the first example of a cross-metathesis reaction between an alkane and an aromatic

Abstract

The silica-supported tantalum hydride [([triple bond, length as m-dash]SiO)2TaH] 1 catalyzes at moderate temperature (150–250 °C) the cross-metathesis reaction between toluene and ethane, to form mainly ethylbenzene and xylenes.
